80CrV2 - Now In Stock

We are pleased to add a new steel to our range of knife and tool making steels. 80CrV2 is similar in composition to 1080 steel with additions of chromium and vanadium. It is quite a tough steel with an easier heat treatment that can be completed at home. It also can be heat treated to produce a hamon! We will be keeping stock of 80CrV2 in both 3mm and 4mm thick which has been surface ground so there is no mill scale, in lengths of 700mm and 350mm.
